No. Sometimes panels will consist of only two people. It is impossible to represent every marginalized group in every panel. Instead the aim is to strive to ensure diverse perspectives are reflected in virtual and in person events that feature public servants.

Does this apply for Employment Equity or equity denied groups?
Yes and no. Certain networks have been created to support systemically marginalized groups. They are not expected to organize panels which would exclude members from their respective groups.
That said, institutions have historically centered those who are white, able-bodied and cisgendered and this centering is found even within equity and equity denied groups. Therefore it is encouraged that within a group, event organizers look to organize events that feature diverse and intersectional representation from within that group.
For example a Visible Minority Network should also look to feature colleagues who do not have a clear proximity to whiteness or are not necessarily able-bodied or are part of the 2SLGBTQI+ community as well.
